BURLINGTON, Vt. — It’s against state law to try to regulate guns in the Green Mountain State, but city officials here are looking at what may be a loophole.
Burlington wants to be able to confiscate and secure weapons for up to five days following a domestic dispute, and enact other restrictions. A second ordinance would make it illegal to carry a firearm inside a liquor establishment, while the third would require residents to obtain a permit before carrying a concealed weapon.
City Councilman Norm Blais told Vermont Watchdog the council has the authority to pass new city gun regulations because of a single clause — “except as otherwise provided by law” — that proceeds the state law making the firearms regulations illegal in Vermont.

By reading the comments at the end of the article, I don't this is likely to happen. I HATE how anti's when mentioning newton always mention how many deaths and injuries there were. I smell Bloomberg in here somewhere. It chaps my ass it really does. I love the part about even constitutional rights even need regulation. Isn't the the point of a constitution to stop the govt from so much regulation. This guy should fired immediately for that alone. "Loophole" to hang all the pro gunners with I guess
